FREE SPEECH UNDER ATTACK

August 18, 2022 19:00 - 49 minutes - 45.5 MB

One of the underpinnings of liberty and foundational to a lower-case-d democracy is the unfettered ability to speak freely. Since the ratification of The Bill of Rights in 1791, Americans have taken for granted that their government would not interfere with this natural right. But that doesn't mean that it's universally popular. In fact, free speech is becoming increasingly demonized by the same institutions that are shoving Marxist theory down our throats.

There's never been a period in the history of America where The State has more forcefully tried to pulverize The People's ability to pray, worship, and gather.

Second Amendment has protected Americans' God-given right to keep and carry guns since the Bill of Rights was ratified in 1791.

Despite 2A 's intended application, the campaign to dismantle it and disarm citizens has persisted. Now more than ever, peace-loving gun owners have targets on their backs. Mike...

The attempt to erase the story of America's birth is well underway. The Left has all but cancelled the most famous of the Founding Fathers, Washington and Jefferson. And now they've upped the game to include an obliteration of their most epic legacy: the founding documents, our Bill of Rights and the Constitution.
